Yes, but be very careful. The car will be much harder to steer at low speeds. Also, you will want to make sure the missing belt does not also power the alternator or the water pump, as these two items are more important.

1984 Nissan Pickupcan you drive without power steering belt And is the belt just for the power steering?
